Talbot 1978 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 When was the last time you walked down kilmarnocks high street?Bad aswell, I take no comfort out of saying how run down all our areas are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Nowadays, Ayr is one of the worst high Streets I've seen. Sadly a shell of what was an excellent day out.South Ayrshire Council pricing out small retail businessesOnly a yokel would describe Ayr High Street as "an excellent day out".

Talbot 1978 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Only a yokel would describe Ayr High Street as "an excellent day out".Maybe nowadays but Ayr was actually a decent place to go to in the 70's and 80's Unfortunately its giving Cumbernauld a run for its money in the carbunkle towns competition.

The Carbuncle awards are more about architecture , which in Cumbernauld Town Centre is awful. A lot of the buildings in Ayr are lot more pleasant on the eye.

It's something like £25k now, IIRC. Drastically reduced from £82.5k as of last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Will this be the first ever televised game from Beechwood? Obviously Talbot have been on the TV loads, but it has usually been at neutral grounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC63 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 It's certainly the first live televised game from Beechwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but Beechwood has very solid fairly big terrace alround plus a 500 seated stand. Cove have a similar stand but almost no terrace and have a 2600 capacity. Wouldn’t like to be in there with any more than 1000. 4000 for the Talbot Ayr game would have been fine. Inconsistency if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inconsistency if you ask me. Or maybe when the health and safety checks were carried out they determined that 3100 was the maximum amount. I’m willing to bet the guys that do these things are better placed to judge how many fans can be housed inside a stadium. When did Talbot last have a crowd of 4000 anyway?

rb123! Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Something been mentioned that we're getting 1,200 tickets, imo we'll never take that amount considering we only took 800 to Beith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
